With all the Pacific Islands and German hamlets our WWII vets stormed and took, I don’t think a few barricades would stop much.

Pure spite. The Obama foot stomping temper tantrum knows no bounds.

It was closed because Harry Reid and Barack Hussein Obama are vindictive little men. The same reason there are no tours of the White House. Obama is not good for the United States of America and the star dazed media needs to wake the heck up to this fact before it is too late.

In other words, Gubermint went out of their way to muck with Vets.

They paid people to lay Machiavellian plans during the shut down.

Pure **** ****

Obama is playing games. This is why he wanted a shutdown. He is a worthless boy.

I don't think it's making *the old people* mad at Republicans. In the video, one WWII vet is quoted as saying that *there are less brains in Washington, now, than we've ever had*.

Spot on! Go WWII vets! Still kicking a$$ after all these years!

I imagine the Marxist dictator directed it. That’s the way dictators are. Flippin’ pigs.

Commie theater. As another freeper noticed on another thread, the “closed to to government shutdown” signs looked professionally made... like they anticipated this weeks in advance.

Slightly OT but does anybody know if there was any activity around the Vietnam memorial (wall) toady?

Thanks.

Another one of Obama’s acts of defiance against America, the Audacity of Hope and Change (to socialism)

I’m not sure if park service guards are on duty or not, but the truth is these monuments could very easily be vandalized. It’s been happening.

“Audacity” is the keyword.

To make people suffer in as many ways as possible and blame Republicans.
